Page 4 THE KEY WEST CITIZEN “ Wednesday, August 6, 1952 SOCIETY... PERSONALS... NEWS OF INTEREST TO WOMEN ITEMS OF INTEREST TO EVERYONE ; DOROTHY RAYMER, Society Editor SHOP HOPPING WITH ‘The implications of this date ‘and all it might mean to us has not yet been fully shown. This is the anniversary of the dropping of the A-Bomb on Hiroshima. What it means through the be- @louded eyes of the shocked and burned Japanese is another mat- ter. Coincidentally enough, my favorite editorial was printed enly yesterday in this paper. Enough of that, and on to gayer, Mghter subjects. 4 : The first successful talking pic- fure was shown in New York City this date in 1926. To most of us, silent movies are a dim, hazy recollection, or ridiculous e-releases, This is also a birth- day anniversary, August 6th being the birthdate of Alfred Lloyd Tennyson (poet) born in 1809. He has to date contributed more to the world than the A-Bomb. And so, on August 6th, 1952, I thall attempt to contribute to the Citizens of Key West all I have learned in the line of Shop Hop- ping since last we met. Yoiks}— ‘r something. : ..%. * 1 have often heard, though mot often lately, the sad lament, “There isn't a decent place in the whole darn town to eat.” Well now friends, that is 2 exaggeration, there are One of my favorites is out at Hit ' x * We've heard of everything now, and this is particular in- teresting considering the current ‘water shortage. It’s a new and simple way to turn raw drink- ing water into distilled, with the mew ployethylene bottle with a filter of de-ionizing material in- gerted like a stopper. For further information write the Machlett Laboratory, 220 E. 23 St, New York 10, N. Y. Don't blame any- thing on me, I haven't even tried ft, as I said, I only heard, ‘Two more new sodas to keep the littlest buckaroos happy these warm afternoons. The first, sim- ple as can be, Root Beer Soda. Combine one-half cup of milk and one cup of root beer in a tall glass. Add one small scoop of chocolate ice cream and more root beer if necessary, to fill the glass. Stir well and _ serve, decorated or undecorated with a green cocktail cherry on the sip- per. : The other, an apricot soda made with three-fourths cup of canned apricot nectar in a tall glass, one small scoop of vanilla ice cream and the glass filled with a lemon flavored carbor.ated beverage. This can be decorated with cubes of fresh apricot if de- sired. kekouk Snooping around at Fall fashions in August gives all the thrills of 8 preview, al- though it is almost time to be- gin buying. Such a thrill was mine at the Appelrouth Shoe Center yesterday. A n.w slant on the two year old ballerina style was designed this year by Grace Walker in her graceful black suede with the single narrow strap and the ‘capezio” heel, Entirely new, but designed for dress up moments, the green kid pump that can only be described as “peri” with its braid trim around the mud guard shell: The manufacturer. Grace Walker again, calls it the “Whim Pattern.” and it’s a whim of mine to have them for Fall. Not forgetting the lovely girls who will be returning to school in just a little while, Yanigans has a low heeled, two color, two leather ballerina type slipper. Navy blue suede tops and red kid shell toe and narro: strap. It also comes. in all black, all blue, or all brown, xx Charles Stryker Ingerman wrote a little article titled “Nei- ther Birds nor Bees” from which I quoted briefly a column or so ‘ago. There are a few others in it worth repeating: “Every young man has, I think, a secret conviction that he could win any girl in the world if he worked hard enough at it.” “When you were little, we told you not to play with matches if you didn’t want to get burned. At the risk of seeming stuffy, let me remark that the back seat of a parked car is a whole boxful of matches—and no fire extinguish- er handy.” “Fun which nibbles at self- respect costs too much.” “Biology, despite Darwin, is not very selective. Just take a look around.” These are just a few. I will, in future Hoppers quote a few more The guy’s good! > a Eh Pd Although the Casa Cayo Hueso advertises itself in big neon lights as the Southern- + most Cafe—it would be well to journey over some sultry after- noon, even if you aren’t hun- gry. The grounds are old, spa- cious and beautiful. As you walk towards the front entrance, you will see a round fish pond complete with old stone fountain and little gold fish swimming ‘round. The big lawn at the left with state- ly palms slopes right down to the ruined old sea wall where the waves lap lazily. You can swim there awhile and then when you get dry inside, wan- der into the dim coolness of the old Casa for a refreshing drink, Bathers are welcome, or if you choose, you can have it served outside. Quite a plan for the rapasee pe don’t you think? x * Ann Batchhelder, as adver- tised in our own Citizen has de- creed this to be Honey Month with a great big yes ma’m from me. If you follow her advice you will add a little honey to a regu- lation French’ dressing, for a fruit salad. . If you like Cinnamon toast, and who doesn't, try making it with honey for a change instead of sugar. Of course this pre- cludes mixing the cinnamon with the sugar, but you can spread generously with honey and then sprinkle with cinnamon. See if you don't like it. I knew about it long before I know Ann. Then, bananas baked in honey are extra special, with a piece of lemon rind and another of but- ter or margarine. Make your sauce of same and baste fre- quently. x~ eek To make use of a timeworn phrase just one more time: if you're not looking so good lately. you should see an eye specialist. | Celebrates First Birthcay 4ueen Staff bnoto PEGGY, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Bert Roberts, Yates Porter Place, celebrated her first birthday this week with a big party at Bayview Park. Mrs. Roberts is the former Hanna Roeschel, of Frankfort, Germany. The couple met in Germany in 1946 when Mr. Roberts was stationed in Frankfort with the U.S. Army. They were married in 1949, here in Key West, Wreck Killing 24 Caused By Snakes BOMBAY, India » — News- papers told today how 24 persons were killed in a bus accident caused by snakes on the’ loose. The bus, loaded with Hindu worshippers, was going through the jungle in Hyderabad State last week to the Hindu festival charmers whose baskets of king cobras were tied to the roof of the bus. As the bus bolted along, the snakes escaped. Some of the rep- tiles appeared on the windshield and others crawled in with the driver. The snakes had had their poi- ‘son apparatus removed, but the driver panicked and lost control. The bus went off the road and fell into a chasm. The driver lived to tell how the crash oc- curred. mn all kidding aside, Dr. A. J. Valdez would like to announce that Dr. George Law- son, of Miami, prominent eye. ear. nose, and throat specialist will be here again this Friday. Dr. Lawson has been coming to Key West for the past two years, but folks have a habit of forgetting just when. I hear that it is the first Friday of each month, but I’m going to be right here in this corner to remind you, and probably with another corny joke. Anyhow, phone Dr. Valdes for your appointment if it’s the specialist you wish to see. The number's 332. Don’t forget! x * * Saw on a special Navy release yesterday that there is a lady out at the Monroe hospital who is badly in need of type “O” blood, either negative or positive. One pint isn’t enough, this lady needs FOUR pints a day to keep on living until the Doctors can cure this maglignant disease she has. So if you have the type needed, | do your good deed — yea even your duty and keep her alive. It doesn’t cost anything, and it's such a nice feeling. *<« && Whece nature leaves off. Donald's begins. Let Nature— and you, be properly grateful. * ©. There was something else we Meant to say, but darned if we can think just what it was. Oh well, Friday's another day that will be coming soon, and with it More shop hopping. Summer is going fast isn’t it, and you should just take notice of not only the new Fall merchandise, but the Christmas stuff in all the stores. Santa here we go again. Got your Christmas shopping done yet? Believe it or not, mine's started’ See you out Jaxon.—(Advt) Mrs. Ben Bernie Complains About Showman B. Rose BEVERLY HILLS, Calif. — Mrs. Ben Bernie wants Showman Billy Rose arrested. She says he showed several persons an affi- davit by her former maid accus- ing her and Eleanor Holm, Rose’s estranged wife, of improper con- duct. Mrs. Bernie, widow of the band- leader, signed a complaint in mu- nicipal court Tuesday and a bench warrant was issued for Rose’s ar- rest. The district attorney’s office said it does not expect to try to extradite Rose from New York but he can be arrested if he comes to California. The complaint is based on an affidavit obtained by Rose from Alberta Jones, 30, Los Angeles. It states that while she was employed ‘by Mrs. Bernie in New York in 1944, she saw Mrs. Bernie and Mrs. Rose committing improper acts. Rose and his swimming queen wife are engaged in a bitter di- vorce battle. Married in 1939, they separated shortly after Actress Joyce Matthews, ex-wife of Milton Berle, cut her wrists in Rose’s New York apartment a year ago. Mrs. Bernie said the affidavit, which she called a “fabrication,” was shown to a number of per ; Sons, including Bernie’s brother, Herman Bernie. It exposes her to “public hatred, contempt and ridi. cule,” Mrs. Bernie said. The misdemeanor criminal libe! with which Mrs. Bernie accuses Rose carries a maximum penalty of $5,000 fine and a year in jail. Rose, in New York, said the maid was one of his witnesses in his divorce action against his wife, who is suing him for separate maintenance. He said he had of- fered to pay expenses for a rep resentative of the district attor- ney’s office here to go to New York and take his testimony in connection with the libel suit.

Is this community properly ane adequately supported by its adult members so that civic organiza- tions function as the will of thc majority desire and direct? Or, i we cite the parable of the Goo* Samaritan, are there perhaps one out of every ten people who trul: bear one anothgr’s burdens while the other nine say, “Let Joe do at"?

Just as much as your vote is needed, so is your offering of blood and financial support of communi- ty and national welfare interests of vital need. If every adult, out of kindness and brotherly love who was atle to do so donated a pint of blood, America would be able to meet its obligations for all emergency pur- poses, armed forces, disaster, civ- il defense, ete. Each donor would be one less that Uncle Joe could claim for his legions. The Masters of the 5th Column force their con- stituents to vote, shed their blood, and conscript their wages and pro- duce above a scanty level of exist- ence.

(» — Leonard | Ross’ parents are trying hard to make him believe he’s just like other youngsters, but it isn’t easy. How many other little boys 7 years old are studying radio engineer- ing? Or like to read encyclopedias and almanacs? Or can add frac- tions in their heads? Or memorized the names of the kings of England and Presidents of the United States just for fun? Occasionally Mr. and Mrs. Wil- liam Ross forget that Lenny is a boy and discuss such things as politics with him as though he ' were an adult. During the tele- casting of the national political j conventions, Lenny watched for hours. He knew all the candidates by name. Lenny attracted consideratle at- tention when he recently passed two stiff Federal Communications Commission examinations, one for a novice radio operator’s license and the other for a commercial radio operator's certificate. The second test required the ability. to send and receive at least five words a nfinute in Morse code. A prodigy? Lenny’s mother, a court reporter, tries to scoff at the idea. But she admits that her slender son with the big bright eyes has been reading, since he was 3. He’s used an electric type- writer, adding machine and an of- fice calculator for three years, “He has a photographic mind,’ she smiled. “He gets much of his love of mathematics from his fa- ther, who heads an accounting ” Lenny will be in the second half of the third grade this fall. He skipped a half year and his teach- ers wanted him to skip more. But, said Mrs. Ross, he is a bit small for his age and she wanted him to stay near children his own size as a matter of “social, adjust. ment.” At Don Martin’s radio school in Hollywood Lenny keeps up pretty well with adults in radio engineer- ing. He is in a class with his brother, Daniel, 13, and a cousin, Dick Somers, 15. This “team” plans to build.a radio transmitter. Dick already has one. He confided in his adult class- mates in radie school that “they give me fourth grade mathematics but I know I could do sixth grade math.” current relief of suffering and dis- tress.
